Note. It is possible to download firmware or configuration files using SCF commands.
However, these procedures are reserved for service providers. (The SCF procedures are
documented in the NonStop S-Series Service Provider Supplement.) Using SCF to download
the firmware or configuration files can cause TSM alarms because TSM cannot detect the
sensitive actions being performed in the cluster switch.
